Frequently Asked Questions
It is the yield that a taxable investment must offer to equal the after-tax return of a tax-free investment, given your marginal tax rate.
The formula is: Taxable Equivalent Yield = Tax-Free Yield / (1 - Tax Rate). For example, a 3% tax-free yield at a 24% tax rate equals 3.9474% taxable yield.
It helps investors compare municipal bonds (tax-free) with corporate bonds (taxable) to determine which offers a better after-tax return.
